1.the Original 3-Hour Whale Watching Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 908 reviews · 3 hours · from $108Our pick

3-hour certified whale cruise from Reykjavik into Faxaflói Bay with warm overalls, biologist-led commentary, and 90% whale sightings.

“The whale watching tour was an amazing experience. They had thermal overalls and rain jackets available to wear which was great and helped us stay warm through the boat trip and have great views on the deck. The guide was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot, and also had great communication about the whale spottings. We managed to see two humpback whales and several minke whales which was the highlight of the trip in Iceland. The boat also had great communication with the other companies about whale spottings so we all got to see the whales. The boat didn't go to close so that it wouldn't disrupt the whales…”

7.Blue Lagoon Round Trip with 3h Driver’s Wait

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $453

Private Blue Lagoon round-trip from Reykjavik or Keflavik with flight-tracked pickup, 3 hours on-site, and optional admission handling.

“This pickup had a late start due to some miscommunication prior to us getting off the ship, but Matthew was an excellent driver and quite easy-going. The big vehicle was comfortable and a smooth ride. We were 4 with 2 bags per person and there was plenty of room, even with 3 of the 4 being 6' and taller. The comfort Blue Lagoon entrance ticket was enough for our needs, but I wish we had the robe and/or brought an extra towel as BL only provides 1. The clay silca mask was enough for us, as was the 1 drink per person. You can buy more as well. The pick-up…”
